Men can wear what they like, at whatever age, as far as I'm concerned. |

My ex husband had a pierced ear when we were married, but when he briefly came out with his true sexual identity { after we split} he went mad with piercings, in many different places lol!! |

I find babies with pierced ears more offensive. I think they should have a choice as to whether they have their ears pierced or not, the age of say 16 is early enough! |

Earings for Men???. This was originally for "Sailors Before the Mast" who wore a Gold Earing or meybe two, So that if they Drowned and were cast upon a Foreign Shore,The Price obtained from selling the Earings would Pay for a Christian Burial. The Others ( Unless they are Deep water Sailors) are just "Poseurs" Putting it Politely.**M**, |

Initially my first tatoo was for a similar reasons, a union flag with my blood group under it should I ever be injured or wounded. After the first one i just seemed to acumulate them |

I have never understood it - in the olden days of yore seamen wore a earring in order to pay for their burial! They also wore tattoos in order to identify their bodies should they drown at sea. |

At least with ear- rings and piercings you can get rid of them, I have 7 tattoo's which I am stuck with or need to invest a fortune in laser removal |

I had to laugh when I read the title of the thread Uggers......firstly I thought......why not wear earrings and any style they want to.....it is just an expression of their personalities.... |

I personally don't like jewellery on men whether it be necklaces, earrings, bracelets etc. However, I think it is up to the individual :-) |

Can't really say that I have given it much thought...I am used to it...In my family it the norm. Don't like body piecing though. |
